Hi Patrick, I recommend that you just try it. Many people run several instances on the same hardware (even on same VMs) to saturate their line. You can just try if running a second relay will consume more bw. >> - basically, would it have any significant added value to the network? I can stress

Well, I have 100MB guaranteed to the internet and a 1 GIG NIC, the VM CPU is used at 40% (average) I guess I will fire a second VM and see what the total bandwidth result is... 2016-12-11 18:27 GMT+01:00 s7r : > Hello, > > Thanks for running relays. > > > Patrick DERWAEL wrote: > > Hi guys, > > >

Patrick, I run all of my relays under VMware and I don't have any issues at all. How many CPUs do you have in the physical server and how many virtual CPUs do you have assigned to the VM? John On Dec 11, 2016, at 11:19, Patrick DERWAEL mailto:patr...@derwael.be>> wrote: Hi guys, I'm runnin
